What measures have been in place to stop it happening in the future?
We can’t really do much when a chemical like cyanide has been spilt into a river. So in the future, we should do anything we could to prevent it from happening.

These things include designing plants with better safety controls that operate at lower temperatures and pressures. We could also use and manufacture less toxic compounds and have ‘green’ chemists and engineers to help with the building.
Effect of Tisza Disaster
If a spill like the Tisza disaster happens in the future, we could use methods to clean up the spill like bioremediation, which uses bacteria to remove or reduce the effect caused and chemical oxidation, which uses oxidants, such as hydrogen peroxide and ozone to break the chemicals down. We could also have different authorities to follow and measure the concentration of the cyanide spill in order to obtain a greater range of data. With this data, the authorities could communicate with each other to figure out the most appropriate measures to take.
Result of the Tisza Disaster
But until toxic chemicals are replaced by less harmful alternatives, every industry should have emergency response procedures developed by environmental scientists and engineers to help lessen the human health and environmental effects of chemical spills and accidents.
